==Abilities and Powers== Hero was considered to be the preeminent [[Tinker]] of his day. Hero's specialization was not known because he lived before Tinker specializations were considered, but [[Legend]] correctly theorized that Hero specialized in wavelength manipulation,<ref name="I14.y e2">“He was the first real tinker, you know.”<br/><br/>“Before we knew tinkers have specializations,” Kid Win added.<br/><br/>“I’ve thought about it. The disintegration gun, the jetpack, the sonic weapons, the power sources and explosives that were surprisingly effective for their size. I suspect his specialty tied into manipulating and enhancing wavelengths and frequencies.” - [https://parahumans.wordpress.com/2012/10/13/interlude-14-5-bonus-interlude/ Excerpt] from [[Interlude 14.y]] </ref> similar to the stilling powers that [[Zion]] and [[Eden]] employed, with broad applications stemming from few restrictions on his [[shard]].<ref>Keep in mind that wavelengths are reference specifically by Scion in relation to Jack and Jack's secondary power. They're also mentioned frequently in the context of Scion - ripples and waves. Finally, it's also suggested that they didn't even really realize he had a focus at all - he was broad in what he could do.<br/>Do you see how these ideas connect?<br/>[[Eden]] was the scholar, [[Warrior Entity|Scion]] the soldier. They had the same tools, but empathized different ones. So picture Eden taking the primary tools that Scion had and giving them to a tinker so the human could use human ingenuity to explore those tools. Naturally it would be paced out by needing to design and tinker and find materials, using those materials in a sorta kludgy way (ie. have to carry the items, pull triggers, type stuff in), and would have some limitations she tacked on. Except she broke down before she could tailor the restriction part, leading to a vial giving some Scion Lite tools to an otherwise unrestricted tinker, who then joined/helped form an organization that gave him endless materials. That's Hero. - [https://redd.it/3gs5if Reddit comment by Wildbow]</ref> His creations included a helmet-camera, a disintegration gun, a jetpack, sonic weapons, small, surprisingly effective power sources and explosives,<ref name="14.y"/> a raygun, and jet boots.<ref name="Wog2"/>
